A Praise of Dependent Arising was composed with great devotion by Lama Tsongkhapa, combining his understanding of the precise meaning of emptiness with his insight into the kindness of the Buddha for having given the teaching on dependent arising. The teaching on dependent arising is the heart-cherished treasure of all the Buddha’s teachings. Geshe Samten’s book, A Commentary on Lama Tsongkhapa’s A Praise of Dependent Arising is offered as the text for this course.

Shamatha is the practice of calming the mind and its ‘formations’. This is done by practicing single-pointed meditation most commonly through mindfulness of breathing. Shamatha is the basis of all Buddhist practice. The process of undoing bewilderment is based on stabilizing and strengthening our mind.
